Glad you like it, Carol! Some day I expect to see you on the board, counting down the days to your annual trek to Maui like Kal does for Kauai!

A lei--smells incredible and highly unusual outside of the islands. Lilikoi (passion fruit) syrup delivered with a great recipe for coconut pancakes! Divine. Macadamia nuts! Skip the chocolate covered type and also the pineapple wine. Aloha from Boston!

Kal

Mels-13 but who's counting? :-"

There's only one time where I gotta have my nuts covered with chocolate and that's when I'm in Hawaii and having a nice red wine or port for dessert.
(Or when a beautiful Wahine gives me a box in NOLA!)


BTW, Sagitarians RULE!

Kal

OOOPS!! CHECK THAT.
Should read: The only time I gotta have Mac nuts covered in chocolate....".

Color me embarrassed.

But then again......

Thanks for the clarification. I was thinking "Wow, that Kal sure is sharing today!"

Kal

That could explain some underwear, but once again, I digress into TMI.

I've gotten some great gifts from Hawaii. Three sarongs, pinapple, flip flops, shell necklaces, sand, earings, nuts and the wackiest of all, an ashtray made from a coconut in the shape of a mans, um, anatomy.

Hawaiian Girl Mocha Chocolate Chip pancake mix with different syrups was awesome.

Makai1,

TMI = Too much information

My aunt sent me a Christmas greeting card photo of her and Don Ho. How wonderful.

We have received many great gifts from Hawaii. My husband's entire family lived there for years, so Crazy Shirts and Macadamia Nuts were the annual Christmas presents!

When my daughter visited a few years ago she bought me a beautiful Hawaiian print sheath dress. One of my favorite gifts she picked out was a small glass pineapple with gold leaves.

My best friend returned from her recent trip to Maui with a beautiful hand-painted t-shirt, dolphin candles, wooden monkey banks and lobster-print boxers for my son. A Dole pineapple and a coconut are also some favorites!

Now you have all got me curious!!!
Simpson, did you ever receive your bath bars from kopahaiku?
Melissa, what are your favorites? The haiku rain and pikake looked great.
Cindyrella, have you tried the gardenia?
Anybody know where I could get some tropical scented shampoo to go with my new soap?

MelissaHI

My soap favorites? I think it may be subjective....I prefer the fruity scents, like Passion Orange or stuff with banana or coconut in it.
